Armed Neo-Nazis Protest At Detroit Pride Festival

Armed Neo-Nazi protesters with police escort marching through downtown Detroit during the Motor City Pride festivities. NSM [The National Socialist Movement] members from across the country reportedly traveled to Detroit to take part in this anti-Pride demonstration.

In Detroit, an armed white supremacist group called the National Socialist Movement (NSM) descended on the annual Motor City Pride Festival, where they held placards, gave Nazi salutes and displayed armbands with swastikas.

Photos from the event, which was attended by thousands of LGBT+ supporters, showed a group of around 10 neo-Nazis marching surrounded by police officers.

Dressed in black with a number carrying firearms and shields, the NSM marchers tore apart pride flags and pushed over at least one counter-demonstrator. One even appeared to urinate on an Israeli flag. (pictured above)
